COMPLIANCE ISSUES

Bold new ideas tend to break the mold, but they don’t have to break the law, or your business. Make sure your venture is prepared to navigate today’s complex regulatory landscape. We have experience advising all manner of clients, from startup founders and Fortune 500 companies, on how to tackle tricky compliance issues.

EMPLOYMENT LAW &

HUMAN RESOURCES

Hiring your first employee or independent contractor is a happy moment for any entrepreneur, but small mistakes can have lasting and sometimes disastrous consequences. We help companies ensure their interests are protected as they build an early-stage HR infrastructure. This includes: ensuring that your company owns the intellectual property rights to your employees’ work product; helping you develop HR policies to keep your company out of trouble; and drafting employment and independent contractor (IC) agreements that fit the needs of your company and your staff.

DATA PRIVACY &

GDPR COMPLIANCE

Complying with the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation is a challenge to any company operating online, big or small. We help ecommerce companies understand their obligations and confidently face the future of data privacy regulation.
